Was my first trip to Bali,$799 for 2weeks that was for the flight and hotel which included
Breakfast and another meal a day . Back then you could choose to fly in smoking or non smoking
We stayed at the Bali beach club in Kuta which is still to this day the same name
Massage on the beach cost was $1 and I remember having crayfish salad at a little place across the road from the bbc for lunch on most days for $3 This was for a whole cray
I remember going on our motor bikes to a hamburger place out in the back sticks somewhere and all the locals would hang around it at night and stand out the front to watch the tv
To ride a motor bike threw Denpasar gave you the right to buy the t-shirt at the market that said ..... I rode threw Denpasar and survived
Oh the memories ..... To be that young again !
I would say no one could afford a tv back then
And I can say its the only one I saw while on holiday And no such thing as DVDs it was the time of cassette tapes !
Oh what memories ..... And to be that young again
